That is a good moveset for NidoQueen, But I would like to change SuperPower. And The pokemon that has the nickname Rock Star is Golem.

n3croart September 28th, 2006 4:46 PM

Golem = Rock Blast to Rock Slide.

Nidoqueen = SuperPower to Earthquake

Thank you for the attacks.

n3croart September 28th, 2006 6:33 PM

Ya also need some defending moves to become stronger. Just attacks make you lose easier.

shanecdavis September 29th, 2006 4:27 AM

Ugh. Please disregard Lugialord's suggestions. When I have a moment, I will edit this post and give you suggestions for your movesets. Here are just a few quick tips:

- NEVER give your Poke more than one attacking move of the same type. That is redundant and only limits the effectiveness of your Poke.

- NEVER give a Ground Poke a Fighting move. It is a waste of a slot since Ground moves cover most of the same types that Fighting moves do. Plus you get STAB with Ground.

BTW - Lugialord, no matter how many times you suggest it, Rapidash will NEVER learn Earthquake so PLEASE stop suggesting it. Once again, please educate yourself more before trying to educate others.

Don`t be unpoliteful. I was in a rush, so SORRY.

shanecdavis September 29th, 2006 9:45 AM

I apologize for not being polite, but this is a constant thing with you. I also apologize for being a big mini-mod too. It's just that if you are in a hurry or you don't know something for sure, don't post. By posting, you are not only making yourself look bad and hurting your reputation, but you are also giving an impressionable noob incorrect information that they will assume is good.

Take me for example. I don't know squat when it comes to UU. Therefore, I don't bother posting anything about UU teams. I just read them, and see the suggestions (only from certain people that I know are experienced), and learn from them. Some day I will be smart enough to help out with UU, but not now or for the foreseable future.

Sorry again for being harsh, but dude you have to ease up on thinking you have to make suggestions for EVERY thread. Just kick back, read it, and learn from it.

jc_rcw September 29th, 2006 3:37 PM

My name is jc_rcw and I agree with the post above.

Anyways for kanga, the ingame stuff that can work is:

@leftovers/choice band
Double edge/return
shadow ball
earthquake
fake out/rest

Ok, is Protect ok or something.

Okay. Here we go. Fixes in bold:

1. Princess/NidoQueen (F) Lv. 46
Quiet Nature (+SAtk, -Spd) / Brave Nature (+Atk, -Spd)
- Earthquake
- Ice Beam
- Sludge Bomb
- Thunderbolt

If you have a Poison/Ground-type Poke, you would be better off taking advantage of STAB (Same Type Attack Bonus) and give it a Poison and Ground move. EQ and SB are good attacks, even though its Base Atk isn't too great (82). I guess you could go with all physical attacks, give it Choice Band and change to Adamant Nature, but the choice is yours. This is the standard mixed sweeper that also takes advantage of its solid defenses.


2. Brandon/Venusaur (M) Lv. 42 (Need a few pointers for the moveset)
Careful Nature (+SDef, -SAtk)
- Sludge Bomb
- Synthesis

- Sleep Powder
- Leech Seed

Venusaur is a classic tank and it has good disabling abilities with SP and LS. I wouldn't necessarily use Nidoqueen and Venusaur together, but since you only have one SB, give it to Venusaur and maybe put Substitute on Nido. Synthesis increases its staying power.

3. Rock Star/Golem (M) Lv. 46
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Double-Edge
- Explosion

- Rock Blast/Rock Slide
- EarthQuake

Golem isn't needed if you are going to keep Nidoqueen. If you don't here is the preferred set. Go with RS if this is in-game, but if you are battling someone else that knows what they are doing, go with RB to great through Subs. Use Choice Band to make it hit (or go boom) even harder. Don't forget that with its Rock Head Ability, DE has no recoil damage. I will also remind you not to use Fighting moves on Ground Pokes.

4. Abby/Rapidash (F) Lv. 42 (Need a few pointers for the moveset)
Mild Nature (+SAtk, -Def)
- Fire Blast/Overheat
- Quick Attack/Body Slam
- Solarbeam
- Sunny Day

It is no secret that I don't like Fire-types and Crappy-dash is no exception. While it is the fastest Fire-type in the game, that is about the only good thing about it. Okay, it has a good Base Atk (105), but having to choose between Iron Tail and a bunch of Normal attacks shows you how limited its physical attack movepool is. Its, well, crappy. If you INSIST on using it, go with the Sunnybeam set. Meh. WAY too many better options.


5. Shinnon/Pidgeot (M) Lv. 44

Gust
FeatherDance
Fly
Wing Attack

Hell no. I refuse to make a suggestion for Pidgeot. If you INSIST on keeping it, good luck to you. I would highly recommend Dodrio. BTW - Remember to NEVER give two attacking moves of the same type and NEVER use any HM not called Surf.

6. Beauty/KangaSkhan (F) Lv. 34 (Need a few pointers for the moveset)

Bite
Tail Whip
Fake Out
Mega Punch

jc covered this already.

You already have a pretty defensive Poke in Venusaur, but another wouldn't hurt. Think Cloyster or Lapras.

I like the moveset you gave me for NidoQueen. And I might change Pidgeot to Dodrio. Do you know what pokemon I should use instead of Rapidash? And I really like Golem. And Can I please know what is your Favorite poke.

jc_rcw September 29th, 2006 6:47 PM

For rapidash you can use other fire pokemons like arcanine or houndoom, maybe even camerupt or torkoal (xd). Maybe skarmory > pidgeot so you can get some defense ?_?.

shanecdavis September 29th, 2006 6:59 PM

My favorite Poke has always been Snorlax, since way back in the RBY days, before I knew what competitive battling was and came to understand it was the best non-Legendary in the game. I also agree with the above post.

Sure, I'll help with a few pointers per Pokemon. :p

NIDOQUEEN - If you want her to have Special Attacks, I recommend the Bolt-beam combo (Thunderbolt and Ice Beam). It ensures at least a normal-effective hit on all but four Pokemon: Chinchou/Lanturn and Magnemite/Magneton. Then wrap it up with Earthquake.

VENUSAUR - Quite a no-no. Don't use two moves of the same type unless there's no choice. Leech Seed is nice. Try adding Stun Spore or Toxic, and then Magical Leaf.

GOLEM - Remove Magnitude and replace it with Explosion. You can also turn Rock Blast into Rock Slide.

RAPIDASH - Its movepool limits it to being a special sweeper, so let's make it a Sunnybeamer (helps against Water types too). Sunny Day, Solarbeam, Flamethrower...

PIDGEOT - Two out of four. Try giving your Pidgeot the Toxic combo, with Toxic and WHirlwind. Pidgeot's overall not a good Pokemon; replace it with a better Flying type like Dragonite.

KANGASKHAN - Physical sweeper? Earthquake, Fake Out, Shadow Ball, Brick Break?

Recommended movesets:
Nidoqueen: Ice Beam, Thunderbolt, Earthquake, Body Slam or Toxic
Venusaur: Magical Leaf, Toxic or Stun Spore, Leech Seed, Attract
Golem: Earthquake, Rock Slide, Explosion, Brick Break
Rapidash - Sunny Day, Flamethrower, Solarbeam, Bounce
Pidgeot - Fly, Toxic, Featherdance or Steel Wing, Whirlwind
Kangaskhan - Earthquake, Fake Out or Mega Punch, Shadow Ball, Brick Break

miyo September 30th, 2006 7:11 AM

But I like them. I don't really want three defensive moves for my pokemon. And I don't want to give Arcanine Overheat. And besides I think the movesets I gave them are good. So, I guess i already desided what attacks I want them to have.

shanecdavis September 30th, 2006 4:37 PM

If you like them, then stop asking for a rate. My suggestions aren't going to change. Fly is a horrible move, period. Skarmory is NOT an offensive Poke. If you don't want to use three defensive moves on it then use a different Poke because that is its strength. Golem shouldn't have two Ground moves. You shouldn't have THREE Fire moves on your team. I could go on and on. If you want to use that team, go ahead. Just stop asking to rate it.

I just want to know if the attacks I said are good.
